I missed the call when I wasn’t home and figured it might be some kind of scam, so I looked it up here just to be sure.

Just got a call on my home phone yesterday from someone who somehow knew my name. They told me there were two odd big payments made, one supposedly at Amazon, and if I didn’t make them I should press 1 to talk to their team for assistance. I didn’t even hang about, just ended the call straight away and blocked the number. If something feels off, trust your gut instinct every time.

Got a recorded call telling me there were some suspicious charges on my debit card. This number has phoned me thrice already today and it’s obvious it’s all a con. What’s more, the message never even says which bank it’s from. Total scam, no doubt about it.

Got called a couple times earlier, they claimed cash was withdrawn from my account. Sounded like one of those robot calls, so I just ended the call. Pretty clear it was a scam.
